As we move into the warmer summer months, staying hydrated does more than quench our thirst. Water plays a key role in our body’s daily functions. Water is the fuel our body needs for our internal temperature control, lubricating our joints, maintaining fluid balance, protecting our organs and tissues, and removing harmful waste from our kidneys and liver.

Our blood and muscles are primarily made up of water. Our body fat and every other part and organ in our body has water components as well.

Dehydration can happen quicker than you realize, and it’s important to know what to be on the lookout for and how to avoid dehydration in the summer and beyond.

Is Dehydration More Common in Older Adults?

Anyone can become dehydrated, but the situation is especially common as you get older. As you grow older, your thirst is significantly reduced. In addition, you are more susceptible to dehydration because you have less water in your body compared to younger adults.

Other factors that may put older adults at greater risk of dehydration include forgetting to drink fluids or challenges getting up to get a drink. A recent study from the University of California, Los Angeles School of Nursing found that up to 40% of older adults may be chronically underhydrated.

Symptoms of Dehydration

Symptoms of dehydration can tend to go unnoticed. In fact, these symptoms are often attributed to the natural effects of aging, medications, or other medical conditions. With that, it is essential to be aware of the signs of dehydration for you and your loved ones.

Understanding these warning signs can also help you act before the situation gets worse. These include:

• Increased thirst
• Dry mouth
• Throbbing headache
• Muscle weakness or cramping
• Less frequent urination or urine concentrated and darker in color
• Increased heart rate
• Dry, flaky skin
• Lightheadedness
• Sunken eyes

Call your doctor immediately if you experience any of these symptoms:

• Diarrhea or vomiting that lasts longer than 24 hours
• Feeling irritable, disoriented and much more tired than usual
• Bloody or black stool
• Unable to keep fluids down

How Do You Know If You’re Drinking Enough Water?

Key findings from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention recommend a daily water intake of 11.5 cups for women and 15.5 cups for men. However, it is also recommended to speak with your healthcare provider about how much water you should be drinking daily as they can better consider your medical history and current medications.

Certain medications can be more likely to cause dehydration. Speak to your physician about any medications you are taking that may have dehydration as a side effect.

Creative Ways to Stay Hydrated in the Summer

While it may be challenging to always meet your preferred water intake, here are some creative ways to get it in:

• Keep spare reusable water bottles in the areas you frequent most, including your home, workspace, and car.
• Make it more enticing by adding slices of fresh fruit and veggies to create your own infusion that suits your taste. Fruits such as strawberries or orange slices can add a bit of sweetness to water; cucumber with fresh mint is an invigorating and cooling combination.
• Eat more juicy fruits such as melons, peaches, and strawberries. These summer treats are not only tasty but will help your body stay hydrated. Herbal teas can also be a flavorful alternative to water and can be enjoyed iced or hot.
• Avoid or decrease consumption of more diuretic beverages including alcohol and coffee which can increase urination while also dehydrating you further.

 Following these tips will do much more than keep you cool; they will help keep you healthy.

What symptoms of dehydration have you experienced in the past? What beverages or treats do you enjoy most in the summer?

Do you worry that you’re not doing enough exercise – or the right kinds? Are you concerned about getting hurt if you
exercise incorrectly? Wondering what really works to build your bones?

In my line of work, I communicate with many clients who wonder those same questions. Here are my three top exercises for osteoporosis (and 1 you should never do!)

Our Bones – The Bad News and
The Good News

The bad news is that approximately 20 million women
aged 50+ in European Union countries have
osteoporosis. In the United States, over 50% of women over 50 are at risk to break a bone, according to the National Osteoporosis Foundation.

The other bad news (I promise this part is almost done!) is that
age is the #1 factor in fracture risk. In other words, the older we get, the
more likely we are to break a bone.

The good news (yes, there is good news!) is that you are not a
statistic! Osteoporosis is NOT inevitable, and broken bones aren’t either. You
can take positive action steps at every stage of life to ensure that your bones
stay strong.

It’s common knowledge that exercise is good for our bones, and
research supports this.

Three types of exercise really stand out for building bones, and
we’ll cover them below.

Note: Please check with your medical
team before beginning anything new. Listen to your body to progress gradually,
and always give recovery time in between sessions as needed.

Exercise #1 – Weight-Bearing Impact Exercise

Weight-bearing exercises are those where we hold our own body
weight against gravity. Impact means that one object comes into contact with
another forcibly.

Walking, dancing, and hiking are perfect examples that combine
bearing weight on our feet and legs while impacting the earth with each step.

There are three kinds of impact exercise – low, high, and medium.

Low Impact Exercise

For an exercise to be low-impact, we always keep one foot on the
ground. Walking is low-impact even when we walk briskly. This can be done daily
or several days per week, depending on your distance, speed, and intensity.

High Impact Exercise

Exercises of high impact cause both feet to leave the ground at
the same time. Examples include running, jumping, hopping, and vigorous
dancing.

While some sources recommend that women with osteoporosis avoid
high-impact activities, it is an individual judgement call that depends on the
severity of your osteoporosis and your fitness level. Check with your medical
team.

Medium Impact Exercise

Medium impact exercises include movements in which we impact the
ground with more force than walking, but at least one foot stays on the ground.

The best example is stomping. When you stomp, one foot stays on the ground while the other makes a bigger impact. It’s safer than jumping because you can do it in a doorway, while going upstairs with one hand on the railing, or even sitting down.

Try it now – just raise one foot and stomp as if you were crushing
a can with your foot. This is my favorite exercise to teach active older women,
as it also helps us get out any frustrations with the satisfying loud stomp on
the floor.

Weight-Bearing Impact for the Upper Body

What about weight-bearing impact for the upper body, you may ask.

We cannot ignore the bones of the upper body, as wrists are a common location for fractures. We bear weight on our hands and forearms in yoga and bodyweight exercises like planks and push-ups. Tennis and Pickleball also are great ways to add impact exercise for your upper body.

Exercise #2 – Resistance
Exercise

Resistance exercise is another way to say “lifting weights” or
“strength training.” Research proves that resistance exercise works to build
bones.

Having worked in gyms and wellness centers for many years, I
observed that many women skipped this essential aspect of fitness.

The other mistake I often see women make is staying with very
light weights forever. To create changes in our bones, we must activate the
“principle of overload.” This means that we must fatigue our muscles in order
to strengthen our bones.

If you do an exercise 12-15 times, you should be so fatigued at
the end that you could not do any more with good form. If you are not that
tired, change the exercise and/or add resistance.

For upper body bone strength, I recommend push and pull exercises with a band. If you have arthritis in your hands or wrists, there’s still a way – check out this video:

Exercise #3 – Balance!

It’s no surprise that if you don’t fall, you probably won’t break!
Balance exercise is a non-negotiable essential in every active woman’s routine.
Unfortunately, most balance exercise programs for women over 60 don’t include
balance exercises that look like real life.

We don’t fall and break a bone when standing on one leg while
touching a wall with our hand. We don’t typically break a bone while standing
on an imaginary balance beam next to our chair.

Please don’t get me wrong. It’s not that these are BAD exercises.
They are a good starting point, but they don’t take us far enough into a zone
of challenge, and they don’t mimic the challenges of real life.

Real-life challenges include tripping over a tree root, walking on a slippery surface, and stepping down from a steep stair.

To challenge your balance to prepare for real life, balance
exercises need to be dynamic and three-dimensional. That means you’ve got to
move your body forward and back, side to side, and in rotation.

For some examples, check out this video about how to make your balance exercises look like real life.

The One Exercise You Should Never Do

If you have osteoporosis in your spine, don’t hunch or crunch!

The lumbar spine is designed to have a natural curve inward. In
anatomy terms, it’s called extension. The opposite is flexion, which rounds the
spine forward.

Excessive flexion of an osteoporotic spine can lead to vertebral
fractures, also called compression fractures. The fronts of the vertebrae
experience too much pressure, and they give way in the form of small cracks.

Several movements that cause too much flexion should be avoided if
you have osteoporosis in your spine:

• Hunched posture standing or seated;
• Sit-ups and abdominal crunches;
• Rounding your back while lifting
  an object;
• Flexion of your spine in yoga,
  Pilates, or other forms of exercise with repetitive forward bends. Keep your
  lumbar curve neutral.

When you’re coming out of a brisk winter, your skin doesn’t magically stop getting dry and dehydrated just because it’s spring. Leave it to one special powerhouse skincare ingredient to nurse your skin back to health. Everyone could benefit from some hyaluronic acid action in their skincare routine, regardless of the climate or season. It’s the type of ingredient that shows skin-altering changes year-round. However, not all hyaluronic acid-packed products are made the same.

In comes L’Oréal’s Revitalift Derm Intensives Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum to rescue your skin from whatever drought it’s been in. Our skincare bestie, hyaluronic acid, has more benefits than we can count. It hydrates, plumps and minimizes the appearance of wrinkles.

With a 4.5-star rating on Amazon, there are thousands and thousands of shoppers who can confirm the amazing results this formula provides.

“I feel I look five years younger. My complexion is incredible,” raved one reviewer who gave the product a perfect five-star rating. “Can’t imagine going without this product ever again. Unbelievable product!”

We already have hyaluronic acid in our skin, so getting a boost from an HA-infused serum only increases our face’s hydration levels. And as we all know, hydrated skin leads to a soft, plump, younger-looking complexion. This formula mixes low-molecular and high-molecular-weight HA for intense hydration. Once you cover your skin in this product, you’ll understand why. 

The best part about this lightweight hyaluronic acid serum is that it moisturizes without leaving your skin all greasy. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave behind a tacky feeling or residue. Because of this, you can also wear this serum as a primer under your makeup. 

“Today as I was putting on my makeup I noticed the mirror looked airbrushed. So I decided to do a one-week contrast and my jaw hit the floor,” wrote one five-star reviewer. “I can’t believe this drugstore serum outperformed a two hundred dollar high-end product. I wish I had started using this 20 years ago!”

It’s also compatible with all skin types, fragrance-free and non-comedogenic. So, whether you use it for moisturizing or anti-aging purposes (or both), you don’t have to worry about whether it’ll mesh well with your skin.

“With just ONE use, the deep wrinkle under to eye was already significantly less visible. I am in love with this product. I’ve only been using it for a few days but I can already see the difference in my appearance and lines under and around my eyes,” wrote another shopper.

There you have it: the face serum that’s next up on your shopping list. It’s about time you try L’Oréal’s thirst-quenching hyaluronic acid serum that does nothing but good things for your skin. Cop yours for 33 percent off on Amazon.

Revlon’s magical hairdryer and brush-hybrid has been generating buzz for the past three years, and for good reason. It’s a high-quality Dyson Airwrap dupe that is easy to learn, fast to use, and fair on the wallet. The game-changing tool you never knew you needed has garnered rave reviews and even been deemed a salon blow-out alternative. That’s why it’s so notable that the already budget-friendly Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer is on sale ahead of Prime Day.

The hot air brush—usually $59.99—is now under $34. Yes, a game-changing hair tool is under $35. This is not a drill. It’s got plenty of fans to back up the hype, too. The dryer has a 4.6-star overall rating and more than 243,000 five-star ratings on Amazon.

I recently snagged myself a Revlon One-Step. I have notoriously frizzy hair, and despite many to traditionally blow dry my hair with a hairdryer and brush, I could never master the perfect blowout. I totally gave up a few years ago and just started air-drying my hair.

The brush, which is honestly larger than I expected, blasts hot air through holes on the brush. You can choose from three different heat settings or a cool dry setting. I personally use the lowest setting. It boasts tufted bristles with nylons pins that help to detangle and style at the same time. I feel like I have more control when I dry my own hair than I ever did with the chaotic classic dryer. My hair turns out soft and smooth, so I’m giving this brush two very enthusiastic thumbs-up.

Revlon One-Step in Mint

Of all the colorways, the Mint one has the steepest markdown right now. This version flaunts a whopping 44 percent discount, bringing its price down from $60 to $36. Plus, who doesn’t love a mint moment in their bathroom?

“I absolutely love this two-in-one styler! I was so reluctant to spend the money on this but I’m so glad that I did,” wrote one five-star reviewer. “The styler blew dry my hair in half the time my regular blow dryer takes and I didn’t even have to use my flatiron. I have so much body to my hair!”

Revlon One-Step in Pink

This is the second lowest price you’ll find for Revlon’s popular hair tool, so you should take advantage of this ah-mazing deal ASAP.

“I despise blow drying and styling my hair because it’s so long and freakishly thick,” wrote one five-star reviewer. “It takes me over an hour with a normal hair dryer to dry and style when I do put forth the effort to do so… which isn’t (wasn’t) often. Ponytails were my go-to 99 percent of the time. 20 minutes. That’s how long it takes me to do my hair from wet out of the shower, to straight and sleek locks using this thing. Best purchase I’ve made this year!”

Revlon One-Step in Teal

What makes this styler so great is how easy it is to use. You don’t need to be a salon professional to get the hang of using the Revlon One-Step. Heck, you don’t even need to look up a YouTube tutorial to get the gist. Usually, you can get this blue model for $60, but right now, it’s on sale for $40.

“This gave me salon-quality results on my own. I have thick, naturally curly hair,” wrote one five-stat reviewer. “Blowing dry my hair in the past also required use of a straightener and hot rollers to put some bounce back in (a total of about 1.5 hours). This tool did it all in one step in about 25 minutes!”
